Julia rejected the constraints of #Roman #Patriarchy, and paid the price. Also, note the parallels between later #RomanHistory and that of the #USA -- as the Roman Empire began restricting women's rights and enforcing "family values". And we all know what happened to the #RomanEmpire...

Notable #RomanWomen: #Julia

Julia was born in 39 BCE, the daughter of the first #RomanEmperor, #Augustus (#Octavian). As her “#guardian,” Augustus severely restricted Julia’s freedom, but as the daughter of the emperor, Augustus made sure Julia was well-#educated.

Augustus had arranged several marriages for Julia, all for political reasons. Julia resented this, and was known for having several lovers. Augustus ignored her behavior for a while, since she had born several heirs to the family line.

However, in 2 BCE, Julia was arrested for “#adultery and #treason,” and Augustus accused her of plotting against him, though at the time, Augustus has passed laws promoting “#FamilyValues”. Julia was exiled to a small island, where it is said she died of starvation.
